“It’s good, but what if it had more power?” Such is the question that has dogged the Mazda Miata for decades. Save for tuners and one turbo Mazdaspeed version, we’ve never really gotten it. Now the Italians are here to answer that question for us: the Fiat 124 Spider will get an “extreme” Abarth version. »7/20/15 7:00pm 7/20/15 7:00pm

Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been having a bit of a rough go of it, lately. He’s been trying to offload Chrysler for a while, preferably by selling it to GM, but all he’s faced is rejection. Sad, sad rejection. »5/26/15 2:45pm 5/26/15 2:45pm

Yes, it’s silly. Yes, it’s advertisement-y as hell. (For whatever it’s advertising. Fiats, I guess?) But it stars the Fiat 500 Abarth, maybe the third or fourth most fun car you can buy at the moment, so it’s alright in my book. Take a look. »5/13/15 9:30pm 5/13/15 9:30pm

Having a car that your father bought in 1955 is pretty special in itself, but this Fiat racer has even more to offer as long as you don’t mind getting battered by the rain at while struggling towards the ton. »5/05/15 9:50pm 5/05/15 9:50pm

I’m not sure if you’ve heard, but sub-compact crossovers are so hot right now. They’re practical, have a modicum of capability, and are perfect for the urban-dwelling, active lifestyle 20-somethings that rule the Kingdom of Powerpoint. The 2016 Fiat 500X should be the standard-bearer for the segment. But it’s not,… »4/17/15 9:59am 4/17/15 9:59am

I recently had the chance to drive a Fiat 500L in Istanbul, Turkey, a wonderful Eastern European city that’s home to a wide range of beautiful mosques, and excellent restaurants, and lovely neighborhoods, and people who drive like they’re fleeing the Kraken. »4/14/15 3:20pm 4/14/15 3:20pm

The Bertone designed and built Fiat 850 Spider was a small 2-sear roadster that sourced its rear engine setup and mechanical parts from the higher volume Fiat 850 sedan. The nuts at Abarth created a hopped up version with a bigger engine and called it the Fiat Abarth OT 1000 Spider. Don't ask me what OT stands… »4/08/15 1:46pm 4/08/15 1:46pm

Despite driving a Volvo sedan nowadays, my dad has always been a station wagon man. That makes perfect sense because he's a smart guy and wagons are the smartest choice one can make. The Fiat Tempra SW? Not so much. »3/10/15 9:41am 3/10/15 9:41am

If you're going to make a really small city car, you've really got only two options to style it: unashamedly utilitarian or out-and-out clamshit crazy. It's pretty easy to see which way Fiat went with their 1972 X1/23 concept, and, personally, I think it works. »3/06/15 9:00am 3/06/15 9:00am

Just as it was once soldiers and lions in the Colosseum, it is now spies and Jaguars in the streets of Rome as Spectre, the 24th film in the James Bond franchise, shoots its ridiculous car chase featuring the bespoke Aston Martin DB10 against the be-nope Jaguar CX-75. »2/25/15 9:27am 2/25/15 9:27am

Fiat Chrysler thinks the 2016 Fiat 500X can appeal to Americans in a way that the city-dwelling 500 and ungainly, not great 500L never could. It's a good design, and since it's based on the Jeep Renegade, it should be quite capable. Just expect to pay more for it than its Jeep sibling. »2/02/15 10:38am 2/02/15 10:38am
